Why Flippa MCP

Flippa is the world's largest marketplace for buying and selling online businesses — websites, SaaS products, ecommerce stores, apps, newsletters, and more. Thousands of listings, each with revenue claims, traffic stats, and asking prices that may or may not make sense.

Evaluating a listing manually means checking revenue multiples, comparing prices across similar businesses, assessing risk factors, and doing math you'll probably get wrong at 2am. Multiply that by the dozens of listings you need to review to find a good deal.

Flippa MCP gives Claude full marketplace intelligence. Five specialized tools that search listings, pull detailed financials, compute valuation metrics, find comparable sales, and generate market overviews. Zero configuration. No API key. No Flippa account. Just install and ask Claude to find you a good deal.
